BIC is always looking to develop additional facilities to produce aquaculture products. The ability to re-use water from fish production in the irrigation of crops like in Aquaponics offers an excellent opportunity for existing farms to diversify.
The large market for fish and the availability of technical, management and marketing assistance from BIC makes small production sites economically feasible. For more information on investment opportunities within aquaculture please contact Us
